  As the water quality is contaminated by the increase in population and economic activity and the global shortage of drinking water, the date set and declared by the United Nations on March 22 to raise awareness. On December 22, 1992, the United Nations adopted the "Observation of World Day for Water" resolution, accepting the recommendation of Chapter 18 (Protection of Water Supply and Quality) of the Rio Environmental Conference. Under the resolution, March 22 was declared 'World Water Day' every year and has been celebrated since 1993.

   The Act was enacted to recognize the seriousness of water-related problems, protect water resources, and improve them as the environment was destroyed due to reckless development of human beings and the surrounding rivers or seas were gradual. Through the World Water Day, the government, international organizations, non-governmental organizations, and the private sector are to achieve recognition of problems related to drinking water supply, conservation of water resources and increased awareness of the importance of drinking water supply, and increased participation and cooperation in organizing the World Water Day event.

   Meanwhile, the International Population Action Group (PAI) calculates the number of renewable water resources available per person per year around the world and classifies and publishes countries around the world as "water-scarcity," water-stressed and water-influenced" countries. According to the report, South Korea was classified as a "water-starved country" in 1990 with an annual per capita renewable volume of 1,452 square meters and is forecast to be reduced to a "water-starved country" by 2025.

The most threatening virus on Earth is humans.
Have you ever heard of this? It's clear that this is a difficult situation that I personally don't want to admit, but I think it's still becoming an undeniable reality. We, humans, are obviously part of nature, so we'll need to protect it when we can protect it ourselves. Then what can we do for water?
There are some tips to help you simple to implement.
  • Using cups for brushing your teeth


   How do you use water while brushing your teeth three times a day for three minutes?
If you turn the water on and brush your teeth without using a cup, about 6 liters of water will be thrown away. But if you brush your teeth with a cup, you use 0.6 liters or 1/10 of a liter. You can save about 15 liters of water a day by brushing your teeth using a cup like this.
  • Turn off the faucet and soap your hands.


   With the recent outbreak of infectious diseases such as coronavirus, hand washing has become even more important. And at this point, we have to put our hands under running water. But you can't overlook the indiscriminate waste of water when you wash your hands. When you wet your hands and soap, turning off the faucet and soaping can also reduce the use of a lot of water.
  • Use of natural soap without chemical additives

There are many kinds of chemical additives in shampoo and soap that you use Check out your soap now. Aren't you inadvertently using shampoo with chemical additives that are harmful to everything? If you use natural soap, you can reduce environmental diseases and environmental pollution. Let's reduce the use of synthetic detergents that accelerate water pollution to address environmental pollution and prevent diseases such as atopy, an environmental disease.
  • Write down your name when you use disposable water bottles.

Whenever there is an event in a place where many people gather, such as a school or church, the water in a disposable plastic bottle is always distributed with snacks. Of course, the best way is to carry a personal water bottle, but it's not as easy as you think to carry it every day So when you get a disposable plastic bottle, leave a mark on your own so that you can drink the water from the bottle to the end.
If you leave your name on a water bottle, you can minimize the waste of water by preventing it from mixing with other people's bottles.

  "To prevent climate change from collapsing, we should reduce beef consumption by 90 percent." The report is based on a recent report published in the world-renowned scientific journal Nature. If the current eating habits are not improved, the ecological environment will be destroyed beyond the reach of 10 billion people in 2050. This warns that a change in eating habits is not a "choice" but a "must" to prevent climate change. A small 'food revolution' that begins with food choices actually has a tremendous impact on the Earth. It's hard to believe, but this is to save the Earth, which is suffering from pollution in water, soil, air and sea. Healthy diets, in particular, are a necessary change for modern people who are overcalorie and undernourished. A plant-based diet, healthier organic purchases, and waste-free food preparation keep the body healthy while also saving the Earth. 　 1. Enjoy a vegetarian diet　 　 The aforementioned report is a ...

  While European governments, including Denmark, Sweden and Germany, are considering the so-called meat tax, studies have shown that imposing heavy taxes on actual meat significantly reduces deaths and medical costs. The BBC and other foreign media reported on the 7th (local time) that a research team at Oxford University analyzed the impact of the introduction of "meat tax" on deaths and medical costs in 149 countries that consume meat. The researchers conducted the study assuming that the government of high-income countries imposes 20 percent tax on meat and 110 percent tax on meat processed foods. In doing so, consumers in high-income countries expected to cut meat consumption by two people a week. As a result, the number of deaths per year across the country will decrease by 220,000 and medical-related costs will decrease by 30.6 billion pounds (about 45 trillion won). The research team also predicted that if the British government applies 14 percent tax rates to meat and...

  The WWF announced on the 30th that it will publish Living Planet Report 2018 in 89 countries including Korea at the same time. The report, published every other year by WWF, comprehensively sheds light on the impact of various human consumption and development activities on species and forests, oceans, rivers and climate change throughout the globe. It is widely cited by various governments and research institutes as references. The contents of this year's report were analyzed based on the latest data collected until 2014. The Global Life Report revealed how excessive agriculture, foreign species and new diseases affected biodiversity, health and population. The "unsustainable development" of mankind has dealt an all-round blow to the oceans, forests, coral reefs and wetlands. Twenty percent of the Amazon jungle has disappeared in just 50 years, and coral reefs have halved in 30 years. In particular, the number of vertebrates living on Earth has decreased by 60 percent ...
